Abstract: |
Coastal erosion at the village of Dunwich in Suffolk has led to the precinct of the Franciscan priory of Greyfriars being threatened with collapse into the sea. For this reason a geophysical survey of the site was requested to help assess the quality of the archaeological resource under threat and develop a strategy for excavation. Whilst conditions were not ideal for detecting buried masonry, many anomalies were detected that were likely to have been caused by the buried remains of medieval structures. Whilst the area covered by these anomalies reveals the priory to have been a substantial establishment, it was not possible to obtain a clear plan of the buildings. |
